Happened upon the above documentary yesterday on BBC Four, all aboot the British motorcycling from its beginnings up until the 60s., well worth a watch.  The bloke doing a land speed record at Bonneville in just his swimming trunks, (and helmet, safety first and all that!!), lying flat on the bike deserves a special mention!!!
